Porsche introduces the Mission X, a groundbreaking concept hypercar that signifies the realization of yet another dream. Set to make its debut on June 8, 2023, the Mission X pays homage to Porsche's 75-year sports car legacy, coinciding with the special exhibition '75 Years of Porsche Sports Cars' at the Porsche Museum in Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen. Inspired by iconic sports cars like the 959, Carrera GT, and 918 Spyder, the Mission X serves as a technology beacon for the future of sports cars, providing critical impetus for evolutionary development.
With Le Mans-style doors, a high-performance electric powertrain, and a compact design reminiscent of the Carrera GT and 918 Spyder, the Mission X is a relatively compact hypercar measuring approximately 4.5 meters in length and two meters wide. The aerodynamically designed concept car features mixed-size tires, 20-inch wheels at the front, and 21-inch wheels at the rear for optimal performance.
The exterior, finished in Rocket Metallic, showcases sculpted bodywork and muscular lines, challenging the notion that hypercars must look aggressive. The Mission X's low-slung body, less than 1.2 meters tall, is complemented by a lightweight glass dome with an exoskeleton made of carbon-fiber reinforced plastic, extending over both occupants. The distinctive light signature, reinterpreting the characteristic Porsche four-point graphic, adds a captivating visual element.
Inside, the Mission X emphasizes driver focus with an asymmetrical interior and unique color schemes. The two seats, with leather pads in Andalusia Brown, feature a combination of Kalahari Grey for the driver's seat and contrasting Andalusia Brown for the passenger seat. Motorsport parallels, including an open-top steering wheel with mode switches and shift paddles, highlight the Mission X's commitment to performance.
Technologically, the Mission X aims for exceptional power-to-weight ratio, increased downforce, and rapid charging performance. The central installation of the battery, following the 'e-core layout,' provides excellent agility, similar to conventionally powered mid-engined cars.
Drawing inspiration from historical super sports cars, including the 959, Carrera GT, and 918 Spyder, the Mission X aspires to set new benchmarks in series production. The mission is clear: if the Mission X goes into series production, it aims to be the fastest road-legal vehicle around the Nürburgring Nordschleife, continuing Porsche's legacy of pushing the boundaries of e-performance and sustainability.
